Hints:

The fabric thread count is the number of threads in a linear inch of fabric. Even in metric countries,
fabric thread counts are per inch (that’s 2.54 cm). If your fabric is labelled "16-count", for example, just enter 16 as the
fabric thread count.

Stitching over 1 or 2: on aida or other coarse weaves you will normally stitch "over one" - each stitch crosses one thread. On linen and finer weaves you will normally stitch "over two".
